Reported in Geoffrey Brooks:
Hitler's Nuclear Weapons,
Leo Cooper, 1992, after correspondence with Wolfgang Hirschfeld, 21.1.1991. Since the US Unloading Manifest shows only ten containers, I pressed him on this matter and suggested his memory was at fault. “I know what I saw,” he said, “and there were definitely more than fifty of those little heavy cases.” The total weight of all material aboard
U-234
was 260 tonnes.

Fehler's assumption was uncharitable. On 15 May 1945, when the diplomatic missions and Party organs of the Third Reich in East Asia were finally closed down, German citizens were interned for the remainder of the conflict under the most hospitable and generous conditions.

The documents relating to the
U-234
affair at the US National Archive are located in Box RG38, Box 13, Documents OP-20-3-G1-A dated May 1945 (Unloading Manifests) and 373/3679/B0x 22/folder OP-16-Z, Day file 1.1.1945 which includes the Nieschling Memorandum dated 24 May 1945. Judge Nieschling was interviewed by Lt Best. Under a heading Regarding “Uranium Oxide” and other cargo aboard
U-234
the material part of the report reads: “PoW does not know anything in particular about this ore, but only heard that it was valuable and that it was to be exchanged for some other valuable ore that the Germans needed. The meaning behind the ore would, according to PoW, be known by the technician FKpt Falck. He took some secret courses before he boarded the U-boat. He was to be chief technician on all naval matter under Admiral Wennecker.”

In early September 1943 the German Navy landed troops on Spitzbergen island, a large, wild, barren and remote windswept island in the Arctic Circle 500 miles north of North Cape. A small weather station was set up in the interior in 1944 and remained there until relieved in 1946, but an actual occupation just to install a seven-man meteorological team seems improbable. Its use as a proving ground for advanced VTOL aircraft types would have justified taking the island from the point of view of secrecy. An account of the Norwegian discovery of German Flugkreisel wreckage in 1952 (which initially they thought was from a UFO since the Americans had not bothered to inform them otherwise) appears in Frank Edwards: Flying Saucers – Serious Business, NY, Lyle Stuart, 1966.

Dr Karl Nowak was also the inventor of the Molecular Bomb, which was never built. So far as can be made out, his idea was that electrons within the nucleus would have been brought to a state of very low energy at a temperature of almost absolute zero and then returned to their normal velocities instantaneously. This expansion force (1015 electrons) would have enabled a bomb vastly more powerful than the hydrogen bomb to have been constructed. Official quantum physics dismisses the idea as an impossibility but recently the physicist Randall Mills has stated that Nowak's concept can be proved theoretically and in practice.

The Gnostic writer Samael Weor alleges in his manual El Matrimonio Perfecto that where conception occurs as the result of a spermatozoa emitted but not ejaculated into the vagina during ritual intercourse practised by a mystic pair, the child will be “a creature of an elevated order. This is the way in which the super-race will be bred”.
